Nato kick-starts its systems with Oracle

Nato has begun to roll-out a programme to modernise its financial system using Oracle's ebusiness software.

Over 700 users in 12 countries will be trained to use the Nato Automated Financial System, (NAFS) to speed up the current paper-based process of budgeting and administration.

NAFS will provide the public organisation with an integrated procurement and finance package enabling staff to monitor budgetary requirements on a global scale.

David Oakley, Nato programme director, said the goal was a modern system that would ultimately enable Nato personnel to make their own requisitions and travel requests.

Oracle won the Nato contract to provide financial software two years ago.
